When i realized the success of Android, smart-phones and tablets, i jumped for joy. While they will be occupied to develop for Android, they gone stop to charge our softwares with megatons of crappy code and libraries, so we have a luck to keep our actual computers for years.
Jan,
One of the more fun psychology experiments was to give a student a deck of 50 cards with 10 sets of 5 symbols. The student then tested 20 volunteers by placing a card face down in front of the volunteer and asking them what it was. The final tally was 16 volunteers at 20%, 2 at 0% and 2 at 40%.
Now what was the purpose of the experiment?

Well, actually...I did it for the chicks...playin the ttables allowed far more "opportunities" than being a geek. Hey, I may be dumb, ugly, and crazy...but I ain't stoopid.

Hey that's my line, who and what I apply it to would get me censored and make some enemies.
Sorry didn't mean to put words in your mouth
Dumbs, uglies, and crazies, we all have a place in this planet
It was jamming, right?

Ya mon, we be jammin..
I'll never forget loaning my mobile setup to the bassist for a reggae band one weekend. He heard my 4 K-horn and two tiger system playing a roller disco gig, and just had to use it for the concert the next two nights. My friend was a big reggae fan, and apparently this band was well known from Jamaica. Back in '78 I believe.

I wish someone would tell that to the Orion vs. Behringer thread, talk about no fun (a special prize for the first person to spot the pun).
JC is not a sweetheart either. Nor he is pushed and dragged to post here. It is his choice. It is a technical forum. The objective is technical not personal.
Well, this “level of problem” is the reality. An MC or MM pre has to work with a given signal.
If the analysis of the input signal transforms it into an “unacceptable problem”, some should start thinking differently. Hi end wording of subsequent audible results, doesn’t provide a remedy.
I love hitting the ENTER key hard and speaking some @#!!%& words between PC keyboard changes

JC is a barroom brawler. He enjoys a fight, but sometimes even he gets tired of the same old, same old.
I think you misread the second part. The LF energy is a problem he is trying to address in his design. If it were not able to be fixed he might have moved on to CD's. Note however he has mentioned he finds some mono recordings better than stereo, that may be due to the use of lateral information only and less LF noise. (But who knows for sure!)
As to computers, well I'd get banned for saying anything more...
No, the experiment was to see how the student reported the results. (I went to a school with a very devious department of experimental Psych!)
Depends on your statistics bent. But the results actually would indicate significant deviation from the norm or evidence of ESP, even though the average is what was expected. Of course the actual explanation was the cards were marked and the subjects were coached to give those results.

OK Ed. My mistake.
From my old notes:

Are there any drawbacks for placing this HP filter right at the MM pre input (or an MC pre input) ?

Codd's piece (sorry couldn't resist) will misterminate a typical MM cartridge, for which the typical 47k has most of its effect at high frequencies. So you will already be well-below that resistance just due to the 22k shown.

So far I have only measured flux leakage. Still to be done is line noise pass through and AC balance.
The loser is the flatpak. The best may be r core and tortoid.
There is more than 2 millivolts across the chassis for the flatpak.
